Finished the main bits

Post by Mr Bonehead »

Hi all,finally got the kettle something like finished,runs a bit rough but hopefully a good blast will cure that,years of lubricating the cylinders with 2 stroke oil to stop her seazing up and just so you know it doesn’t have the £365 Suzuki logo mirrors on that recently sold on eBay 🤣
Hope you all have a great Christmas cheers from france MrB

Thanks for the reply caneletto5,luckily the bike only cost €1500 12 yrs ago from a expat lad down in Cannes,at the time it was a good exchange rate so about £1200 ,did the work myself and the photo hides the rechroming that it needs on the mudgaurds /dials and a few other bits but that as most of us know with these Is always on going :roll:
Cheers and festive wishes from France MrB
